half brothers (FTO au)

chapter 8

Bryan let out a muffled groan as he woke up, looking around in a daze before letting out a muffled gasp as he remembered what happened. He shot up but winced as he felt something cold and metallic dig into the skin around his neck. He felt exhausted and weak so he hadn't realized what was happening around him.

He realized that a metal collar had been put on him and that it was connected to a chain that was connected to the floor in the middle of the room. He let out a muffled whine before realizing that he was gagged. He began to shake a little as he curled up in fear, not realizing that someone walked into the area he was in until he heard their voice.

''Oh Rian~ Come see who finally woke up!~'' Bryan shook more and turned towards E.Brandon with fear, becoming more scared when he saw E.Ritc- err, Rian, walk up to him.

Rian grinned when he saw that Bryan had finally woken up, turning to Brandeen with a smile.

''Well Brandeen, you remember what we're not allowed to do to him, right?'' Brandeen nodded at his twin before speaking.

''Why don't you spend some time with him while I go get us some food.'' Rian nodded while Brandeen walked towards the exit of the cave.

Rian turned to Bryan, who was trembling as he began to crawl backwards. Once Bryan got into a corner, Rian sighed before smirking as an idea appeared in his mind.

Rian sat down as he grabbed the chain, giving it a strong pull. Bryan let out a muffled yelp as he was dragged out of the corner and to Rian, who chuckled at him. Rian moved back to the wall while keeping his hand on the chain, giving it a pull when Bryan wouldn't move closer.

Once he had his back against the wall, Rian pulled the chain once more, causing Bryan to fall within grabbing distance. Before Bryan could get up, Rian grabbed him and pulled the smaller male into his lap.

Bryan let out a muffled whine before trying to pull away from Rian, causing the male to growl and slightly tighten his grip on Bryan, growling into his ear.

''I wouldn't struggle if I were you... you may be my brother but that won't stop me from teaching you a lesson if you misbehave~'' Bryan let out a muffled whimper but stopped struggling, causing Rian to let out a hum of satisfaction.

''Good boy~'' Bryan shuddered at the tone yet didn't try and pull away, knowing it wouldn't be worth it.

They remained like that for 10 minutes until Bryan felt his eyes began to droop, the exhaustion he was fighting away coming back as he whined softly. Rian looked at him and saw his expression.

''I'm sure you're wondering why you're feeling what you're feeling.'' Bryan didn't respond but he looked up at Rian with tired eyes.

''The reason why is that the collar you're wearing is draining your mana to the point where you can't use your magic, but you can stay awake for a while...'' Bryan whined a bit as his eyes began to grow heavier.

Rian loosened his grip a bit, not enough for Beyan to get off of his lap, but enough for him to be comfortable. A few minutes later, soft snores were heard from Bryan, causing Rian to smile a little bit.

He let out a sigh before looking to the cave entrance, waiting for Brandeen to come back so that he could eat.

Remember to always try and have a good day/night. Bye wolf pups!!
